Comedy
Louis Fowler
To me, few things are as annoying as being stuck in a conversation with a group of stoners who’ve spent most of the day tokin’ it up.

Howard stern
After losing control of the Zoo Amp, Howard Pollack refuels and returns with a new music destination in OKC Downtown Airpark.
Music
Louis Fowler
Music always has been in Howard Pollack’s blood — maybe not onstage, but definitely behind the scenes.
New Zoo revue
With new management and upgrades, the iconic Zoo Amphitheatre venue returns to rock.
Music
Louis Fowler
As the bitter battle over management of the Zoo Amphitheatre played out in public last summer, Oklahoma City music fans may have worried whether the outdoor venue at 2011 N.E. 50th would be open for business this summer.
Ice, ice baby
A local business knows that ice sculptures are a cool way to heat up any summer party.
Features
Louis Fowler
With the possible exception of a French clown blowing a golden trumpet while riding a white stallion, nothing adds class and sophistication to a summer party like an ice sculpture.
Prinz of tides
Local musician Dustin Prinz has postponed his album-release party, but he has a darn good reason.

Louis Fowler
Oklahoma City musician Dustin Prinz was all ready to go with an album-release party Saturday when the worst possible thing that could’ve happened did: He decided the disc needed more songs.

Pupuseria El Buen Gusto
2336 S.W. 29th
636-1399
What works: the pupusas, all for an unbelievable low price
What needs work: It’s cash only, so a card reader would be nice. Unless you speak Spanish, sometimes communication can be difficult.
Tips: three words — horchata, horchata, horchata
Freshly brewed community
In an effort to revitalize N.W. 39th Street, Beans and Leaves proves to be more than just a coffee shop.
Features
Louis Fowler
Once-beleaguered historic areas such as the Paseo and the Plaza District have evolved from mere Oklahoma City neighborhoods into centers of art, culture and community.
Lovely bones
Instead of taxidermy, one OKC company preserves dearly departed pets by cleaning and posing the doggone skeleton.
Features
Louis Fowler
While most people look at skulls and skeletons as symbols of death, Jay Villemarette, owner and president of Skulls Unlimited International, sees life.
Reverb brotherhood
